The Architecture
Program prepares students to transfer to professional
degree-granting institutions or to complete the Associate in Science
Degree with a major in Architecture for direct entry into a
professional position. The course of study includes instruction in the
following: architectural technology and design, basic architectural
drawing, estimating and construction costs, mathematics, physics, and
structural concepts.

Instruction in general education is
included so that students may satisfy the College graduation
requirements in this area. While most of our students are planning to
transfer to a California University, graduates who have satisfactorily
completed the Curriculum in Architecture are qualified for direct
entry into employment in various capacities in architecture, the
construction industry, and related fields.

The Architecture program at City College of San
Francisco strives to equip students with the necessary tools to
identify and analyze critical issues and formulate meaningful
responses all within the discipline of Architecture. The program
commits to instill within each student the passion to treat their
studies as part of a larger promise to life-long learning and
community stewardship.
